Chapter 259: The penmanship is exquisite
Naturally, I wondered if the person who answered had returned.
After all, when they were leaving, the person who led the team had personally told me about the next mission. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
They were ordered to pick up the recruits who came to the camp for training.
I remember that very well.
The guy standing across from me looked at me and replied, "There aren't that many people, there's just one carriage." ”
A carriage?
I secretly said in my heart, I will definitely not be a member of the Pioneer Camp in the future!
Because I remember the details very well, the man mentioned that about half of them were coming to the camp when he left!
Counting that the number of people in the camp is less than a hundred, it means that at least dozens of people will come.
He continued: "It stands to reason that if you are all members of the pioneer battalion like us, you will definitely not come in just one car. ”
I nodded, and the two of us continued in the direction of the camp.
Along the way, I saw some companions who stopped to rest.
Some people's eyes naturally look in our direction.
The guy walking next to me muttered to me affirmatively, "If you want to get to the camp, you won't just have a few people...... How can a car sit down? ”
He has a point! I think exactly like him.
Shouts could be heard from far away on the west side of the camp.
After glancing at the prestige, he turned his head to look at me and hurriedly said to me: "Hey, you have been to the general's tent, since the general called you, you can go over quickly." ”
"I'm just sending a message, so I'm not going to take you to the camp."
He gestured to the group on the west side of the camp.
Then he reached out and patted me on the shoulder and said, "I have to go." ”
"They're shouting at me!"
He couldn't wait to leave, and he seemed to be in a hurry, and I probably knew the reason in my heart.
Because I trained myself and followed the relatively wastewood team in the battalion, I was a member of the wastewood team.
My teammates...... The gang didn't put too much pressure on themselves.
If there is, it is only ordered by the instructor above.
But the rest of the teams ...... Those who were drawn from the Sealand Wing Division entered the Pioneer Battalion and maintained their usual practice and standard.
Even if you are training with people from the same team, you will be divided into high and low in the process of stage practice.
The guy seemed to be under pressure just now, and his expression told me very clearly.
He certainly didn't want to delay his training because of someone else's business.
If the strength of a team itself is not ordinary, of course the people in the team do not want to be the one who drags behind, the self-esteem of men!
As soon as my companion shouted, his word of mouth also arrived, so I said it and hurried back to continue training.
I looked at his back and suddenly thought, if this situation continues on the scrap wood team, will my team have less time to rest at that time?
Diligence can make up for shortcomings, and if I am an instructor, I think it will be a very appropriate approach!
Because the gap is so obvious!
I sighed, walked to the edge of the camp, and continued through the path between the tents.
That General Han, what do you want me to do?
I'm not sure.
I consoled myself that I could only go to the camp and see the general himself and be improvised!
...... Approaching the boundaries of the hot springs, mist spreads through the mountains and forests.
As soon as the fog cleared, the field of vision was suddenly limited.
Tianfang took the guards, and gradually felt the difficulty of walking, especially the boundary near the stream, which was really difficult to walk.
Fortunately, the sound of water can drown out some of the sound of horses' hooves, and it may be because of this that the tracking guards were able to reach the boundary deep in the forest.
Otherwise, it won't be that far.
The fog in the mountains is a double-edged sword, on the one hand, it blocks the view of those who are rushing ahead, and the speed of travel is affected.
The same is true for those who follow him.
But on the other hand, it is precisely because of the presence of fog in the mountains that the trackers in the rear can hide their whereabouts.
Everyone is in the same environment and faces almost the same difficulties.
By the stream, Tianfang got off his horse when he saw this, and dismounted with the guards.
Standing beside Tianfang at this moment, they can clearly feel the mood of the Lord at this moment.
From their point of view, the fog in front of them only grew thicker and thicker, and the sight that came into view through the obscured foliage of the forest became blurred.
The guards stood beside Tianfang, and after a while, the mist in the mountains wet their hair, and even their clothes felt damp.
The two of them looked at each other and turned their heads to look at their master.
They saw that the corners of Tianfang's lips were pursed, and the expressions on their faces were very complicated.
After a moment's hesitation, one of the guards took two steps back slightly.
He reached out and slid across the blade, bringing out slight water marks.
This environment is very uncomfortable, although the temperature here is a little higher, but the humidity is too heavy.
He turned his head to look at Tianfang and said in a low voice: "Lord, we also tracked the vicinity of this area at that time."
The guard thought about it again, with some helplessness in his eyes, he looked at Tianfang again and continued: "At that time, we waited in the forest for a while before continuing to walk because we were worried that we would be exposed if we followed too closely. ”
Although he didn't know what his master was thinking at the moment, or he was a little irritated because of the unknown future......
The guards felt that they had to explain the situation in more detail, so that Tianfang could use it as a reference.
Of course, they had already guessed that Tianfang's mood must be very bad at this moment.
The complicated terrain and previous experience here told them that the guards must have come prepared when they arrived in the mountains.
What's more, the secret hidden here, they haven't found any clues yet, and they have to continue to look for it.
What could be more frustrating than being in this environment and not being able to find a clue!
Maybe the answer is just around the corner, and the fog obscures the view and obscures the truth.
Tianfang glanced sideways at the guards, looked at them after groaning, and said in a deep voice, "I'm going to take a look near the hot springs later." ”
"The fog here is all due to the hot spring water in the mountains......
A thought flashed through Tianxin, and he raised his eyes to look at the mountains and forests in front of him.
After he calmed down for a while, his expression gradually relaxed, and it was only by chance that the appearance of the little junior sister appeared in his mind, which made him sigh slightly inadvertently.
...... Standing under the tree, he paused for a moment before reaching out and pulling out a map from the contents of the package he was carrying.
This map was originally collected by the Sea Protectors who lived in the Northlands, and it was a topographical map of this area.
Tianfang looked at the lights in the courtyard of the house overnight, and now I see the uncertain route ahead...... He was going to take a closer look before going to the hot springs.
Use the markers on the map to see if there are any other clues to be found.
The guard caught a glimpse of his master looking down at some of the tiny spots marked on the map.
It is not so much a topographical map of the Northland that Tianfang is holding in his hand, but a map that restores the scene in this area.
Because the people who draw the map ...... After all, people who don't go deep into it and see the surrounding scenery with their own eyes know better, but from the overall situation, at least the direction will not go wrong.
Some areas of the Northland are no-man's land, and no one has ever climbed those snow-capped mountains.
There were no ordinary people living nearby.
The presence of those places makes the area a bit mysterious.
...... Tianfang leaned the map against the horse's back and spread it out.
The guard leaned over and lowered his head to look intently with his master.
If you want to get a more accurate topographic map of the Northland, you can only find it in the military camp where the King of Sealand is facing each other.
Speaking of the current picture, it took a lot of trouble for the guards of the Sea Kingdom to get it.
Tianfang's gaze focused on a nearby place, and he frowned again.
The guards on the side hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Lord, is there a problem with this position?" ”
Tianfang shook his head and said: "According to the map, it is absolutely right, and it is true that the area we have walked through is also right, but the landmarks in the hot spring area are a little strange." ”
"Lord, may I ask what is the strange method, is it wrong?"
The guard chuckled in his heart, and when he heard this, he looked at Tianfang and hurriedly asked.
There was a hint of hesitation in Tianfang's tone, and his eyelashes moved, and he continued: "I can't say anything wrong, but I just feel ......"
Tianfang stopped the topic, glanced sideways at the guard, and asked, "Where did you get this map?" ”
"Oh, it took a lot of tongues to get this picture, and it was from the shopkeeper of a shop in town."
The guard thought about it and said, "At that time, our people saw a map in the corner of the store, and they came up with the money to buy it from him, but unfortunately the other party did not agree. ”
The guard said in an exaggerated tone: "We were bent on getting it, so the two brothers who went with us finally got it from the shopkeeper with a lot of effort." ”
"We gave us a lot of silver."
"Besides, I really couldn't find any other maps when I got to town!"
He looked at Tianfang and said with a serious expression: "This bit of silver is worth it, look at this drawing is very fine." ”
Even a layman like a guard can see that the person who drew this map has a very delicate brushwork, like a professional painter.
A thought flashed through the guard's heart, if he painted a landscape painting with such brushwork, it would be very eye-catching.
"Hmm," Tianfang said thoughtfully.
He bowed his head in reply, then looked closely.
...... Tianfang didn't take his eyes off the map for a moment, and after a moment, he raised his head and said to the guard, "Put the map away and move on." ”
The guards immediately stepped forward to roll up the drawings and put them back in their bags.
Tianfang thought for a while, and said to the two guards: "Follow me to the front, one person will do, and the other will stay where and wait." ”
Tianfang's gaze swept over the misty mountains and forests again, and after a while, he retracted his gaze and frowned, muttering to himself, "Could it be that the purpose of the secret guard is related to Wang Shi?" ”
"Let's go, let's go to the hot springs and see if there are any other paths!"
"Yes, Lord!"
...... The path leading from the camp is surrounded by empty tents.
Those who train intensively...... My temporary companions are all in the grounds for now, and there is no one here.
As I walked over, I heard a sound from a considerable distance.
I've been to the Big Tent and I've been ordered to get a map, so I'm familiar with the route.
I was still a little apprehensive, so I slowed down a bit to hear what the conversation was talking about, so that I could be prepared.
It's a pity that their voices are sometimes high and low, and I can't listen carefully from a distance.
The wind of the camp blew through the woods and through the tents, making it even more difficult to be an ear disturbance.
I've seen the general surnamed Han, and I once talked to him when I was delivering a map, so my voice is familiar to me, and I can recognize it at once.
Another voice I heard...... It sounds a little low and unfamiliar.
...... When I walked outside the big tent, I stopped at the door and asked, "General Han, the people who were training together in the camp just now came to look for it, saying that you have something to ......look for."
Before I could finish my sentence, a voice from inside the tent said, "You just come in." ”
When I walked in, I saw a chessboard on the table in the tent.
My eyes were immediately drawn to the pieces on the chessboard.
After watching it for a few seconds, I realized that something was wrong, and quickly turned my gaze to the two people sitting next to the table.
But their eyes are on me at the moment!
I looked a little embarrassed, and I guess they were looking at me when I looked at the board.
One of them is of course very familiar, needless to say, the other looks very strange-looking middle-aged man, with medium stature, good facial features, and is not wearing military uniforms.
He was dressed in a light brown robe.
He looked like the townspeople, but I could tell that he was ...... His temperament has also been polished in the army.
So, is this the person who is about to take over the training of the Pioneer Battalion recruits?
There must be more than one instructor, not that there will be follow-up members of the Pioneer Battalion who will arrive here.
I've heard that there are still half of them.
I speculated in my heart for a moment, and then looked at General Han with a gaze and asked, what is he looking for me.
However, after making eye contact with him, I was a little uncomfortable by his gaze, but the other person at the table looked away first.
The man gently took a chess piece and landed it on the board, and I was immediately drawn to it.
In this way, the siege just now was lifted, and I couldn't help but smile.
"You understand, so you know how to play chess?"
General Han's voice sounded in the tent, and then the man opposite him immediately turned his head to stare at me and said excitedly, "Do you know how to play chess?" ”
I was stunned, why would they ask the same question, playing chess?
Is it important to play chess?! (To be continued.) )
